Why this petition matters

Started by hope pell

I'm a 15 year old girl (turning 16 on July 2) who doesn't feel safe at either household (mothers household consists of; mother, sister, me) (fathers household consists of; father, stepmother, sister, stepsister, and 2 stepbrothers). Getting out of my mothers house is my main priority but in the end neither home is entirely safe or comfortable for me to live in. My mother is mentally ill and is not allowed on medication due to a previous liver failure, I also have mental illnesses and we aren't safe around each other. on multiple occasions the cops have been called, i was always sent away each time because law enforcement either didn't believe me or thought it'd be easiest to send me away because my mother is still watching over my sister. I take responsibility for fighting back fullheartedly but for my safety i need to leave this household. She will continue to put her hands on me and i will continue to defend myself, She has choked me before and the police sent me away for digging my nails into her to get her off, this pattern of normalizing her abuse has gone too far. Im sure my neighbors can say theyve heard us arguing, im sure some have heard me scream for help, im also sure that some have seen her throw me out of the house. To get out of this household is my number one priority as stated, but there is still safety issues at my fathers. Both me and my sister have issues with my stepmother and they have lead to me getting kicked out and me running away, my father is better at controlling himself then he used to, and is not as aggressive towards me, this is not first priority to escape from but there are worries of once im taken away from my mother, if my father kicks me out where will i go? DCF has multiple reports on each parent, each report was overlooked even when i had MARKS on my body. I have cried for help for years and im still stuck here. I dont think i will make it till my 18th birthday, i cant wait that long
